Second woman arraigned after child drowns in basement's standing water

DETROIT — A second woman has been arraigned in connection with the death of an 11-month-old girl who drowned in standing water and sewage after falling through a hole in an upstairs floor and into a basement.

The Wayne County prosecutor's office says 28-year-old Tonya Peterson appeared Wednesday in 36th District Court on manslaughter and child abuse charges.

Ca'Mya Davis was unattended July 6 when she fell through the hole in her home's bedroom floor. The medical examiner ruled her death accidental.
